…only you don’t look like “this”. Edges of body, especially legs are so blurred and warped. Assuming most influencers having high res phone cameras — most her body videos seem to be low res. (for a reason)

I fully expect this too. She has a greasy snake-oil salesperaon vibe. Ewww
Yeah, and it is totally inappropriate for brands to claim things, but then state that they’re not approved by the FDA. Fun fact, though, did you know that the origins of snake oil actually started with Chinese immigrants who were essentially indentured slaves working on the Railroad. They brought with them medicine made with the water snake which was found in China and it did actually alleviate a lot of pain symptoms as a lot of natural medicines can when used appropriately especially ones that had been proven to work for thousands of years. But then, of course, greedy Americans and I think there was a guy whose last name was Stanley? Started the whole thing of using like rattlesnake oil, but then they found that he wasn’t even using rattlesnake oil. It was like mineral oil or something? Go read about it it’s crazy! But yeah, basically Chinese immigrants did really bring legitimate snake oil with them that did help with things and then a white colonizer ended up trying to make profit from selling something but didn’t even have the ingredients in it. Hence its negative connotations with lying/cheating people out of $.
This is fascinating! Thanks for this new rabbit hole! I’m not surprised in the least. It’s the same thing with marijuana and other Earth medicines that the government makes illegal so the pharmaceutical companies can thrive. The FDA is complicit in this, too. It’s all a complete mindfuck.
Exactly. We use smudging and drink cedar tea, and take honey at the first sign of illness but we also use pharmacy meds. A lot of people just mess around though with no traditional medicine knowledge or like medical school. When there are no double blind studies, and there is no evidence proving ingredients are beneficial, then it’s a bunch of charlatans trying to rip people off. Unfortunately, even people who are in the medical field are realizing how much money they can make from selling their own brands of different drinks with maybe one or two proven ingredients, but not put together in a way that actually makes a difference in anyone’s life. I really think this needs to be more closely regulated. In Canada cannabis is legal, and a lot of doctors are acknowledging that it is a good alternative to many other more harmful (to our livers, kidneys, etc) pharmaceuticals. Many traditional Indigenous medicines have actual healing properties, but unfortunately once anything non-pharmaceutical starts to be used on social media where nobody questions testing, results and actual feedback.
fascinating!
